Saint Petersburg-based Kuzma Palkin returns to GOST Zvuk with a new series, Memont. GOST has been expanding its presence for several years through sublabels Instrument and Archive, as well as releases from GOST family members on their own labels. Flaty's experiments can be found on the ANWO label, while OL has issued a number of releases through Asyncro. For Palkin, Memont represents a return to his roots. The artwork for the first release, stadion sever, features the original packaging of Moment universal superglue, something that will be familiar to every Russian who lived through the 1990s. The album is named after the eponymous stadium in Palkin's hometown of Severodvinsk, which is displayed on the back cover. Sever represented a kind of playing field in childhood, but has now come to stand in as a metaphor for daily life. The visual landscape of modern Russian life points back to Sever.

Musically, stadion sever is also a return to Palkin's roots. The echoes of early IDM that kickstarted his career in the beginning of the 2000s are on display here. While the music is thoughtful and attentive to detail, traces of irony can be identified among the seriousness, not least in the title of the series and the track synth1 power user. The same ironic touch makes its mark on the album's sound. Palkin borrows the recognizable textures of club music, but drastically modifies their context and transforms them into something altogether more thought-provoking and inscrutable. Palkin's unique sound and the beauty of his music can be found in the balance between retrospection and looking ahead, where austerity meets humour.

For Oleg Azelitskiy, known as DJ Slon, the nineties and the first half of the aughts were an era of “firsts”. First squat parties on the banks of the Obvodny Canal and more legitimate ones at Tunnel, first proper techno club in Russia. First DJ sets, first vinyl records in his collection, first radio shows at Port FM. He is a true veteran of the Russian techno movement, who carried his love for the genre through three decades and inspired more than one generation of musicians. Album №1 is the first edition of his music on vinyl. It comprises the music that Azelitskiy made during 1995 – 2005, except for the track My 40th Vesna, produced in 2010.

Azelitskiy’s love for techno was born out of contradictions. Thanks to the Soviet synth band Zodiac and the French pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre, he had loved electronic music since his childhood. When he grew up, he got into the dark, introspective pieces by Einstürzende Neubauten and Bauhaus. Not only does the wide-ranging palette on Album №1 reflect its creator’s taste, it echoes the changing times of the Russian nineties. It was the time when confrontations with criminals were inseparable from the parties and get-togethers bustling with local artists.

His affection for various genres led to many monikers and projects, all represented here on Album №1. He recorded most of his music as DJ Slon. Then there was a project Zhutkiy Lazer (Scary Laser), where Azelitskiy made music that was more experimental but still techno-oriented, with the occasional help of his friend Aleksey Gaponenko (Lazer became a proper solo project of DJ Slon in 1999). There are also tracks under the aliases Mass Fatality, which combined techno and synth-pop, and Razrushiteli Mozgovych Uliev (Brain Hive’ Destroyers), with its more direct tight techno tracks.

The music of DJ Slon sounds fresher and more alive on Album №1 than ever before. Noticeably, this record, first and foremost, is dance music. As a voice on one of the album tracks boldly states, we came to dance.

TESTFM X ПЭУ w/ Hipushit

This short text is written to tell you about a new record on the waves of Right.FM made by the Saratov artist, musician and DJ Camin' and uncover a little about the author.

In 2015, inspired by the activities of the NII club and the Gost Zvuk label, Vikenty together with the Total Resistance creative community team began organizing events in his hometown and inviting artists from different cities of Russia. While the parties were held, Camin' wrote a lot of music and released it on various cool labels like Kazan's Get Busy, British Opal Tapes and Cong Burn, Odessa's Sistema and New York's Dirty Tapes. The music has depth and groove.

Vikentiy's DJ sets always share a link, some resemblance with his own music, and this does not depend on the genres he uses. A blend of ambient, IDM, dub and breaks awaits us on the link, and we will gladly press play.

Этот ĸоротĸий теĸст написан, чтобы рассĸазать вам о о новой записи саратовсĸого художниĸа, музыĸанта и диджея Camin’ и немного о самом авторе — на волнах Right.FM.

В 2015 году, вдохновившись делами ĸлуба НИИ и лейбла ГОСТ Звуĸ, Виĸентий вместе с ĸомандой творчесĸого ĸоммьюнити Total Resistance начал делать мероприятия в родном Саратове и приглашать туда артистов из разных городов России. Поĸа делались вечеринĸи, Camin’ написал много музыĸи и издал её на разных ĸлассных лейблах вроде ĸазансĸого Get Busy, британсĸих Opal Tapes и Cong Burn, одессĸой Системе и нью-йорĸсĸих Dirty Tapes. Музыĸа отличается глубиной и грувом.

В диджей-сетах Виĸентия всегда ощущается сходство с собственной музыĸой и это не зависит от используемых им жанров. По ссылĸе нас ждёт смесь из эмбиента, idm, даба и брейĸов, и мы с удовольствием нажимаем на плей.

After more than a year of silence, the Electric Dog makes its first sound. 
After the start of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, we were forced to leave our country because we do not share the values and ideas imposed by the government. We are fully on the side of Ukraine and wish a speedy end to the war with the victory of Ukraine.
